Praag '95

Begin deze maand speelde Bob Dylan drie shows in Lucerna Palace in Praag. Drie shows in dezelfde concertzaal, dat gebeurt niet heel vaak. In 1995 gaf Dylan ook al drie optredens in de Tsjechische hoofdstad, toen in Kongresovy sal, Palac kultury. Het waren de jaren dat Dylan zelf niet of nauwelijks gitaar speelde, maar met een microfoon in de hand zijn publiek bespeelde. 
With one hand having free. 
Het waren ook de jaren met All Along The Watchtower standaard als derde nummer van de set. En de tijd dat Winston Watson de drummer van dienst was. Je hoort het aan de tierlantijntjes, zoals je dat ook terughoort op MTV Unplugged, in dezelfde tijd opgenomen. 
Het optreden uit 1995 in Praag zou niet mijn specifieke aandacht hebben getrokken, als ik niet een opname toegespeeld kreeg van een collega. Dankzij het monnikenwerk van Bjorner.com is terug te lezen dat dit derde Praagse concert #643 of The Never-Ending Tour is. Dat de bard zichzelf uitnodigt om gauw weer terug te komen. En, niet onbelangrijk: In Mr. Tambourine Man verse 3 is sung instead of verse 2 for the first time (?) since 1966! 
Het optreden duurde 95 minuten. Dertien nummers in anderhalf uur. Met mooie nummers als God Knows, License To Kill, Boots Of Spanish Leather en Man In The Long Black Coat. 
Het is geschiedschrijving. Kronieken. Verslaglegging van wat is gebeurd.

A Bob Dylan Story

Het is zover: Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese wordt vanaf woensdag 12 juni vertoond via streamingsdienst Netflix en een aantal theaters. Een kleine week eerder verschijnt Rolling Thunder Revue: The 1975 Live Recordings, een box met 14 cd's met 148 nummers uit deze zelfde tournee, bestaande uit concertopnames en repetities. 
Natuurlijk, het is een aanvulling op Hard Rain en Live 1975, The Rolling Thunder Revue, aflevering 5 uit The Bootleg Series. Maar je wilt de film zien en de box hebben. Als tijdsdocumenten.
De cd-box bevat de vijf complete Dylan-sets, die “professionally recorded” zijn tijdens de 1975-tournee, aangevuld met repetities in S.I.R. Studios in New York. Je voelt je als luisteraar in “an intimate insider’s seat”.
In de film zijn interviews te zien en te horen, die Dylan's manager Jeff Rosen in ruim tien jaar heeft gehouden met onder andere Joan Baez, Allen Ginsberg en Sam Shepard. 
Sparen dus, want de box zullen we niet gratis krijgen bij drie pakjes boter in de supermarkt.

Nog even over dinsdagavond. Toen was de eerste show in Wenen. Het concert was al bezig met de toegiften, toen Dylan zich kwaad maakte. Iemand maakte een foto van de zanger, iets dat op nadrukkelijk verzoek van de bard verboden is. De man legde de muziek stil en blafte het publiek toe: "We can either play or pose. It's your decision!" 
Kijk vooral even naar de filmpjes. Aan deze uitspraak (waar je bijna denkt aan de Free Trade Hall in Londen in 1966, toen Dylan werd uitgemaakt voor Judas – vanwege zijn overstap naar de elektrische muziek. “I don't believe you. You're a liar!”) gaat een wat ongemakkelijk moment aan vooraf. Nadat hij in eerste instantie al iets had gezegd over de foto's, gaat hij naar drummer George Recelli en bassist Tony Garnier – en struikelt bijna over een geluidsmonitor. Als hij zich heeft hervat, gaat hij terug naar zijn microfoon om het publiek uit te voeteren.

Kronieken #43: Goede Vrijdag 2019

Het is vandaag Goede Vrijdag. En geen Bob Dylan tijdens dit Paasweekend in Nederland. Tien jaar geleden trad Dylan met Goede Vrijdag op in de Heineken Music Hall. In 2007 (1e en 2e Paasdag), 2009 (Goede Vrijdag, Stille Zaterdag, Eerste Paasdag) en 2017 (Eerste, Tweede en Derde Paasdag) was Dylan wel tijdens het belangrijke christelijke feest in ons land. 
Philippe Remarque vertrekt per 1 september als hoofdredacteur van de Volkskrant. Hij wordt journalistiek directeur van de Persgroep. Zijn achternaam doet me altijd denken aan Erich Maria Remarque, van wie het boek Van het westelijk front geen nieuws door Dylan wordt genoemd in zijn Nobel Speech als inspiratiebron. 
Dylan's duplicaat van de testpersing van Blood On The Tracks was afgelopen zaterdag, Record Store Day, het best verkochte album.
Vandaag is het Goede Vrijdag. Naast The Passion en de verschillende uitvoeringen van de Matthaüs Passion een goede dag om de film The Passion Of The Christ van Mel Gibson te kijken. In 2011 stond een bericht in het Nederlands Dagblad dat Gibson Bob Dylan heeft gevraagd voor de filmmuziek. Maar de zanger weigerde in eerste instantie, wegens tijdgebrek. Later droeg Dylan nog wel “Rock of ages” aan voor de soundtrack, maar dit werd weer geweigerd omdat er al filmmuziek was gemaakt door John Debney. Sindsdien 'verdenk' ik Dylan ervan, dat Ain't Talkin' uit 2006 een antwoord is op het verzoek van Gibson.

Blood On The Tracks Test Pressing

The Blood On The Tracks Test Pressing has taken on near-mythical status -- I have read several sources on-line indicating that something like five copies are known to exist! Some collectors consider this to be one of the great "holy grails" of record collecting, right up there alongside The Beatles' "butcher" cover (which I am still seeking, btw), the Mono edition of Paul McCartney's RAM (which was reissued several years ago, fyi) and the first Buddy Holly & The Crickets LP (of which I finally found a beautiful DJ copy last year at a thrift shop, but I digress...). 
So, here -- finally, after years of only hearing the murky bootlegged version -- we have a fine replica of the actual Blood On The Tracks Test Pressingwhich was released in a very, very (very) limited quantity in 1974 before Dylan decided to rework the record for its final incarnation (now considered one of his finest works). And again, this seems to include one track not on the boxed set that many Dylan fans have wanted for decades in particular (stay tuned about that...).

A fool such as I

When you are gone, I will dream a little dream as years go by
Now and then there is a fool,a fool such as I

Zo zingt Bob Dylan op zijn album Dylan uit 1973. Feitelijk een niemendalletje om zijn stem op te waren voor de opnames van Self Portait en New Morning. De mare doet de ronde dat de elpee Dylan een wraakactie zou zijn van Bob’s platenmaatschappij Columbia Records; de bard was uit onvrede overgestapt naar Asylum Records, maar had bij Columbia contractueel nog een album te maken.
Dat gebrek werd dus opgevuld met Dylan. Afkomstig van deze plaat is de singel A Fool Such As I, foutief toegekend aan B. Abner. Het doet er niet zo veel toe. Het gaat ook niet om dit nummer, hoewel het misschien een goede suggestie is voor deze eerste april.
Vanuit het Dylan-land worden we verwend met verschillende nieuwtjes. De Dylan-fanpage Come Writers And Critics heeft beslag kunnen leggen op een concept-voorkant van Chronicles, Volume 2, deel twee uit de driedelige autobiografie van Dylan. Dit boek “will be released next year, probably on April 1st 2020”.
De Nederlandse Dylan-blogger Tom Willems heeft afbeeldingen toegestuurd gekregen van The Rolling Thunder Revue: The 1975 Live Recordings. Deze box telt 14 cd’s en zal 3 mei verschijnen. Deze box verschijnt ter ondersteuning van de documentaire die Martin Scorsese maakt over de beroemde tournee uit 1975/’76. De datum van 3 mei is een stuk dichterbij en concreter dan “probably April 1st 2020”.
Nog weer wat eerder is het Record Store Day. Voor deze gelegenheid wordt de testpersing van Blood On The Tracks officieel uitgebracht. Het gaat hierbij om opnames die Dylan in New York maakte, voordat hij op advies van zijn broertje David Zimmerman besloot om de helft opnieuw op de plaat te zetten – maar dan in een studio in Minneapolis. De nummers zijn al bekend, dankzij de release van More Blood, More Tracks, maar zo’n speciale uitgave verdient het om alsnog aangeschaft te worden.
